information
After the untimely death
of her mother, Violet Florence (Molly) was brought up by Mildred
HERRINGTON, known as "Granny
Luckhurst" who had a husband George and who lived in Catford. (MGK) Her sister May Miriam (Wendy) went to live with her father's sister Ella Phoebe FULLMAN (1911 cen). One brother James Alonzo went to live with his uncle Alonzo HERRINGTON (1911 cen), while the other brother Ambrose Edward continued to live with his father and a 'step-mother'
who was very
cruel to him. (AH)
Many years later, Violet was being driven through Snodland by her daughter and she said,
"Oh, I think we just passed my brother - I haven't seen him for
thirty years", but she didn't want to go back to speak to him.
Molly was knocked
down on a zebra crossing on 31 Jul 1953 by a car driven by Philip BECK
of Dorrit Way, Rochester. He was fined £2 for "failing to give
precedence to a foot passenger on an uncontrolled crossing". The
case was heard at Sittingbourne Magistrates' Court on 16 Sep 1953.
